Michelin-starred n/naka chefs make onigiri, Japanese comfort food 

Hmmmm Jelly filled doughnuts

Wow the interviewer in this one really make notes of everything

Oh how i miss Japan. I had a 7/11, family mart, or lawson's, 100yen Onigiri every day.

Here you'll pay dearly at a restaurant for Onigiri. In Japan you can purchase it at 7-11, Family Mart, Lawson's for as little as Y100 or as expensive as Y300 for the "expensive" ones. My mother would make them for road trips to take with us. Probably one of the most inexpensive, satisfying and filling snack. Unless you are at some shi-shi restaurant in the U.S.

just a side note: these are Michelin star chefs making rice balls, they're prolly really good but as any Japanese person will tell you the best rice balls are always made by a mother or family member. You don't have to use super expensive rice or ingredients, the main thing that matters is the love and care that you put into them. For me, not being Japanese, my ex made the best rice balls because she put her heart into making them with the things that I loved which made them the best rice balls on earth even though the ingredients weren't expensive. So please don't think that you have to put out a ton of money to make delicious rice balls.

Oooh I saw her in an ep of chef’s table! good episode :)

From my experience, convenience store onigiri in Japan taste better than japanese restaurant onigiri in USA

Damn RU-vid! I'm literally making onigiri right now and this is in my suggested list.

Just received my MOST expensive rice in the mail. Now waiting on my Japanese salt. Can't wait to make this!

delicious!! we just tried Chef Nakayama's new restaurant N/Soto in our recent youtube video, exquisite and amazing!

GREAT TIPS!

The star of 🍙 is the rice. Too many additions of filling and it becomes unrecognisable like “kitchen sink” pizza, IMO. However, if you like it and it makes you happy, that’s what counts. My grandma made mine with crispy tiny whitebait and seaweed. I dream of it still.

I don't get Onigiri, I tried it about 5 times and everytime I felt the rice to filling ratio is off...too much rice (?). Can I play around with that ratio? Any tips please.

What they forgot to show is wetting the hands before putting salt on the hands ☝️

"But I feel like..."

It's like sandwich, portable, and can be eaten by one hand.

is it just me or is the color really weird and washed out in this video?

Love onigiri, but can't make it myself. The sticky rice just seems to not want to mold itself into the proper shape. Maybe too moist.

i like to premake them, put them in the fridge, and put the nori on them when i want to eat them, i have lunch for 3 days like this

this aint nothing on brocks onigiri

Are they family?

rice to filling ratio seems harsh.

wish i could train under a michelin star cheff....it would be awkward cause i suck at cooking and im like 26!

pokemon?

Iida-Nakayama. Never seen a Japanese-combined name before. Just imagine if a Thai couple decided to do this modern shit as well. Good luck to their IDs.

I bet 7-11 and family mart is still better

She is sure stingy with the filling. My family used way more.
